The movie tells the story of Victor Navorski, a man from a country named Krakozhia, who comes to the USA with the hope of taking an autograph from a jazz artist. But he is not allowed outside the airport as his passport turns invalid as soon as the republic of his country is turned over. There is war in his country, he can neither go back nor go out to the US, so he has to live inside the airport terminal. Victor soon makes friends there, and even falls in love. He tries to earn his daily bread in the airport by trying new techniques and is not liked by the chief security officer. But days go by and he wins over everyone with his heart of gold.
Tom Hanks is magical in the movie, and there are wonderful performances from actors like Catherine Zeta-Jones, Stanley Tucci, Chi McBride, Diego Luna and more. The cinematography and music is just wonderful. The two departments were handled by Janusz Kamiński and John Williams respectively. Steven Spielberg delivers yet another masterpiece that will leave you with smiles and tears at the same time.
